10 songs I’ll listen to for the rest of my life

Ok, I ain’t gonna lie. This posting every day thing is harder than I thought it would be…and I thought it would be hard. Today I resorted to looking for prompts online. Don’t judge me.

I generally hate prompts that ask you to write about your favorite anything. Art, music, movies, food, books…I mean, really. Who can choose a favorite? I certainly can’t. But 10…I can do 10.

I realized as I was choosing these songs, that the process became less about my favorites and more about the music that tells the story of my life. Each of them take me to a different time and place and some of them represent people.

So, without further ado, the 10 songs I’ll listen to for the rest of my life:

1. You Are My Sunshine – one of the first songs I learned as a child, and I still love it.

2. Amazing Grace – this one speaks for itself. spiritual.

3. Black Dog (Led Zeppelin) – skipping school and spending the day by the pool at my friend Kelly’s dad’s house. Good times.

4. One (or any other U2 song) – see? I can’t even pick a favorite U2 song. This one takes me back to high school.
